Washer-dryer displays E16 and stops; often associated with excessive foam in the drum.

Safety: Unplug the appliance if foam is leaking from the drawer or door.

• Reduce detergent: Use only high-efficiency detergent suitable for washer-dryers and follow the dosing instructions for your water hardness and load size.
• Run rinse-only cycles: Select a rinse and spin program without adding detergent to flush out excess suds.
• Clean pressure system: If E16 recurs frequently, clean the pressure hose and chamber as described under E04 to ensure accurate water level and foam detection.
• Check load size: Avoid overloading the drum, especially when using combined wash-dry cycles, as this can increase foaming and reduce rinsing efficiency.
